A Spanish tradition that I will enjoy this year for the first time is eating 12 grapes when we move on the the new year. Each grape represents a month filled with prosperity and good luck in 2007.

The new year is almost here and it is a typical time to look back, evaluate the passed year and look forward to the new year.

This last year has been a year with quite some adventures. I quit my job and left for Spain. In Spain I spend the first three months learning the language and afterwords I started looking for a job. I did find some work, but I still need to start. It’s all quite fuzzy, but I’ve got good hopes to start in January.

Sport-wise things didn’t go as planned. I stopped running and, unlike in Leiden where I owned four bikes, I don’t have any bike any more. I do just about manage to go swimming once a week.

Next year will be a surprise, but still some things are already clear. January the 2nd I will move from Alcorcon to the center of Madrid and I will start living in an apartment in ‘Luna’. I hope to be employed for about half a year for a Spanish company and afterwards I will go together with Ana to Glasgow, to have a nice look around Scotland.

I would like to thank everyone for their comments this last year. I wish everyone a very nice 2007!
